Fanon : over time, fan works may acquire such authority within fan communities that they constitute their own kind of canon/ fanon : such notoriety that they establish reputation of their own. For e. g. , in stargate sg-1 fandom, fan c writers gave recurring character, major. Davis, rst name paul : shows how audiences can contribute to mass culture. As it happens, the real stargate sg-1 show"s writers eventually named the character.
